FOR GARDENERS:
It’s planting season for sure now! Nighttime weather temperatures have finally gone back to normal so get your summer veggies and flowers planted. You will find a huge number of tomato plant varieties at the market, as well as many other veggie starts. Also, beautiful hanging baskets and other flowers and shrubs, for those who don’t feel the need to eat the plants they grow! Many of our growers have varieties you can’t find elsewhere, as well as organically grown products.
